Work in Dr. Croyle's lab focuses on the development of novel methods for rapid immunization against dangerous pathogens like Ebola. Additional projects focus on the long-term physiological effects of virus infection with respect to the immune response and drug metabolism. As these progress toward clinical application, our work also addresses the need for novel formulations to enhance both the physical stability and potency of virus-based preparations as well as methods by which to deliver them through the mucosal route.

The current use of high speed machinery in the pharmaceutical industry dictates that the pharmaceutical scientist must be cognizant of the physical and chemical properties of drugs and other adjuvants used in pharmaceutical dosage forms. McGinity's research has focused on controlled release technologies and polymeric drug delivery systems.

Work in Dr. Smyth's lab focuses on the development of novel methods for drug delivery to the airways in health and disease. For example, his group investigates unique microparticle aerosols for controlled release, transformative inhaler and device designs, nanoparticle enhancers for drug transport, inhaled vaccines, and other areas of respiratory drug delivery. Translation of these technologies to the clinic is the long-term goal of the lab and is supported by developing a mechanistic understanding of the complex physical and biological systems.
